A sensor interconnect assembly has a circuit substrate. An emitter portion
of the substrate is adapted to mount emitters. A detector portion of the
substrate is adapted to mount a detector. A cable portion of the
substrate is adapted to connect a sensor cable. A first group of
conductors are disposed on the substrate electrically interconnecting the
emitter portion and the cable portion. A second group of conductors are
disposed on the substrate electrically interconnecting the detector
portion and the cable portion. A decoupling portion of the substrate
disposed proximate the cable portion substantially mechanically isolating
the cable portion from both the emitter portion and the detector portion
so that sensor cable stiffness is not translated to the emitters or the
detector.
